About Zeno

An unprecedented energy transition has begun. To meet 2040 net-zero goals, over 2 billion electric two-wheelers must be sold and $11 trillion in fuel consumption eliminated. Zeno is building the technology platform to electrify this market, which contributes over 4% of global GHG emissions.

Our mission is to accelerate this transition and democratize its benefits across Africa, India, and Latin America. Starting with East Africa, Zeno is building a complete energy ecosystem including a new electric motorcycle and a battery swap network—to deliver a superior customer experience.

The Role

Zeno is looking for a highly skilled SDET with strong programming expertise in Python and Shell scripting to design, build, and maintain scalable test automation systems. This is a hands-on engineering role focused on improving product quality through robust automation, deep system understanding, and tight integration with development workflows.

What You'll Do

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable test automation frameworks using Python and Shell scripting.
• Build automated test suites for APIs, backend services, mobile applications, and embedded systems.
• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines to enable continuous testing and faster releases.
• Develop tools and scripts to improve test efficiency, environment setup, and debugging.
• Collaborate closely with Engineering, Product, and DevOps teams to ensure quality is embedded early in the development lifecycle.
• Drive test coverage across unit, integration, regression, and system levels.
• Perform root cause analysis for defects and contribute to long-term quality improvements.
• Continuously evaluate and adopt modern testing tools, frameworks, and methodologies.

What You Bring

• 2-6 years of experience in Software Testing / SDET roles.
• Strong programming skills in asyncio Python and working knowledge of Shell scripting (Bash).
• Hands-on experience in building and maintaining test automation frameworks.
• Experience testing REST APIs, backend systems, and/or mobile applications.
• Solid understanding of software architecture, debugging, and system design basics.
• Experience with CI/CD tools, Git, and defect tracking systems (e.g., Jira).
• Familiarity with unit testing frameworks and automation tools (e.g., PyTest, Selenium, Appium, or similar).

Good to Have

• Experience with embedded systems testing or hardware-software integration.
• Exposure to cloud-native architectures and microservices.
• Background in Automotive, EV, Telecom, or Industrial domains.
• ISTQB or equivalent certification.

Benefits

• Work with cutting-edge EV and battery technologies.
• Collaborate closely with senior engineers and gain exposure to real-world EV operations.
• Competitive compensation aligned with industry benchmarks.
• Opportunity to play a key role in building quality systems that power Zeno's mission to electrify the global two-wheeler market.
